Sorry pieEater, if you look at the official pictures on the website you will see that he has stubble/a beard!
That is your man from earlier. They were at the hotel for long enough you could have come and checked yourself.

Looks like him to me.
They are still sat there now. I would suggest this will be announced shortly as they are all smiles - awaiting paperwork etc.

Sat in the hotel at the stadium and Brian is sat with three chaps. One is a player (young coloured guy with a beard) and the other two are agents/lawyers.
They are sat by the bar to the right on the seats under the TV with Sky Sports on.

I have been told that the Defoe deal is not dead. It is a season long loan but depends on a few things happening first. Tottenham are currently looking to add to their forward options and the Adebayor transfer has hit a snag. They are also keen on Sturridge from Chelsea and this has been held up due...

RFC had a good run of form after Jason Roberts joined and so his £27k pw INCLUDING bonuses is probably a salary of circa £25k pw with £2k of bonuses etc. RFC won quite a lot of games and Roberts scored a few plus assists (all qualifying for bonuses).

Sorry, for greater clarity I should have said - but they will ALSO get a £1,000 per point bonus in the Premier League.

As I stated on my previous post, I do not work at the hotel but spend time there in meetings etc. On the day in question (when Garath McCleary was present), I was at the hotel all day for work and we had a guided tour of the ground plus dinner in the Directors suite. I also have a few contacts that ...

You will have to trust me with this one but I can reveal a little more into the salaries and bonus scheme in place. Jason Roberts broke the wages cap at RFC last season (no great surprise there) and was on circa £27k pw including bonuses. Most of the players will be renegotiating their packages now ...

To various:

Now do you believe?
I am probably talking utter rubbish, it may have been Mario Balotelli and they would not have been seen in the hotel anyway!

Wycombe Royal - I can assure you that I have only joined Hobnob recently and do not have various usernames. Why would anybody bother anyway and surely Graham, who runs the website access, would refuse access from the same person with the same e-mail address if requested on numerous occasions. For so...

Guys, as I have already posted on numerous occasions this meeting DID occur on Monday. Assuming the financials work for both parties then this deal will be concluded.

Guys, he now has a mohican (not fully grown) as per the Nottingham Forest player of the year award. Once this is confirmed, I will pass over some more information about the club but let's wait until this goes through first and then I will not need to comment numerous times to prove my point! I was a...

Guys, there are a number of other bits of information that I can reveal but lets wait until this goes through and then you will know that they are true and correct!

I was at the hotel all day yesterday for a work conference.
I was sat in the bar area at around 3pm when Brian McDermott and Gareth McCleary sat down at the table directly in front of me.

It was my sighting yesterday but at the time I did not know the players identity (name) and was not a member of Hobnob. The comments were from me to a friend and then they were posted.
Trust me chaps, this is definitely the player.

I can promise you 100% that this is correct! Brian McDermott and the player were sat in the main bar area watching Sky Sports News (Brian even asked the staff to turn the TV over from BBC news) whilst Nicky Hammond and the agent were sat in the Cafe around the corner towards the back (near hotel rec...

I was at the hotel yesterday and Brian McDermott was sat with Gareth McCleary having a chat whilst Nicky Hammond structured a deal with his agent. He is 24 and was Nottingham Forest player of the season but his contact has expired. Assuming the financials match up then this should be concluded short...
